The Seattle Mariners could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Pete Brandon into a win. Instead, the Kansas City Royals prevailed, 5-4. Brandon threw 7.1 innings of 0-hit ball. Kansas City reliever Wes Wright was the winner. His record is now 2-1. The losing pitcher was Elias Huerta. Oscar Mendoza was credited with the save, his 13th in 20 tries.

Rick Montero came through with a big-time hit for Kansas City. The left fielder smacked a grand slam home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 5-4. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

Kansas City manager Mitch Logue called it "a good, solid win."

Kansas City has a record of 38-49, placing them second in the American League South Division.
